Waiting on Apache barrel

**snowgetter1** · 09-06-2018, 09:06 PM

The oh I am just sitting in line but as i approach 1 year and see others post about getting barrels in a few weeks or few months it starts to become a bit frustrating. Especially when there is no communication from the person I have paid.

Agreed, the lack of communication is what kills me. It better be a shooter! What are you guys waiting on? I placed an order with Apache (In January)! for a 23 in, sporter contour 22-250 1/9 twist, X-caliber 5R. I am building a rem-age for the first time.

I too was told “a couple of months”, but I’m currently waiting without any communication on day 454. OR if you are so inclined, one year, two months and 28 days. (But who’s counting.....)

Absolutely ridiculous. i have PM him, sent emails, message via his website, and message just a couple days ago via his orders page on his website. Crickets.... Really need to know if I will have my barrels by next spring or not because I will need them for a prairie dog trip.

I’ve tried all those methods to try to eke out a response, and the only thing that worked was sending an email with my paypal receipt attached. Jim did respond, and said I was not forgotten. A quick note would alleviate my fears that I’m out a barrel AND a chunk of money that I really kind of wish I didn’t part with. Jim’s work comes so highly recommended that I took a chance, and I’m sure IF I ever get my barrel that it will probably be nice, but at over 450 days, I think there is far more to play than just being “really busy”.
